Omar El Akkad
“In times like these, one remarkable difference between the modern Western conservative and their liberal counterpart is that the former will gleefully sign their name on the side of the bomb while the latter will just sheepishly initial it.”
Omar El Akkad, One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This

“And it may seem now like it’s someone else’s children, but there’s no such thing as someone else’s children.”
Omar El Akkad, One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This

“The system does not work for you, was never intended to work for you, but as an act of magnanimity on our part, you may choose the degree to which it works against you.”
Omar El Akkad, One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This

Omar El Akkad
“Anything to avoid contending with the possibility that all this killing wasn’t the result of a system abused, but a system functioning exactly as intended.”
Omar El Akkad, One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This

Omar El Akkad
“To preserve the values of the civilized world, it is necessary to set fire to a library. To blow up a mosque. To incinerate olive trees. To dress up in the lingerie of women who fled and then take pictures. To level universities. To loot jewelry, art, banks, food. To arrest children for picking vegetables. To shoot children for throwing stones. To parade the captured in their underwear. To break a man’s teeth and shove a toilet brush in his mouth. To let combat dogs loose on a man with Down syndrome and then leave him to die. Otherwise, the uncivilized world might win.”
Omar El Akkad, One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This
